This is a common trope in media where nobody in the production uses a bike for transport. There are bikes there for setting, but people never use them as intended. They either just stand around them, or do this weird thing where they take their bikes out for a walk.
- practice9 4y agoExcept Stranger Things, but you could say bikes are essential to the plot
- jonwinstanley 4y agoGrand Theft Auto San Andreas had a lot of bikes and were included in several plot lines
- codetrotter 4y agoIf we are listing games with bikes in them I feel that we should also mention the 1985 arcade game Paperboy ;) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paperboy_(video_game) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paperboy_(video_game)
- jonwinstanley 4y agoHaha yes very true. The OG bicycle game.
- jimbokun 4y agoMaybe there are technical challenges shooting actors sharing dialog while in motion on bicycles? For cars this is a solved problem, and walking people are moving slowly enough for cameras to easily keep pace.
- Aaargh20318 4y agoThere is of course the iconic bicycle scene from Turks Fruit (1973) starring a very young Rutger Hauer and directed by Paul Verhoeven. https://youtu.be/ze_Ncdy_igw https://youtu.be/ze_Ncdy_igw
